Reliable Screws for Model Builders

When servicing or assembling models, the right screw makes a difference. The Tamiya 53776 - 3x16mm countersunk hex screw in blue is sized for neat, flush assemblies and consistent clamping. These fasteners suit builders who expect dependable parts for repairs and new builds.

Flush Fit and Hex Head Advantages

The countersunk head sits level with the surface to avoid catching on bodywork or linkages. That clean finish is especially handy on exposed panels. The hex head design gives a secure engagement with hex keys or drivers, reducing rounding of the head.

Common Uses Around the Workshop

These 3x16mm screws work across many model types, from touring cars to foam aircraft. They offer stable joins for electronics mounts, struts and trim parts, and the blue colour helps with quick visual identification during rebuilds.

They can be used where the foam has been reinforced or where inserts are fitted; avoid driving directly into soft foam without backing or proper thread engagement.
In vibration-prone applications a mild threadlocker helps prevent loosening; choose one compatible with the model material to allow future removal.
Washers can spread load on thin panels and help prevent pull-through; use a countersunk washer if you need extra bearing surface while keeping a flush look.
Confirm thread type and length against the original fastener or parts manual; 3x16mm denotes diameter and length, but check pitch where specified.
